Unraveled (M x M romance) CHAPTER NINETY-SIX
ASHERSebastian stared at me for a long moment. “Did you leave out of solidarity with Elliot or out of guilt that Simon didn’t kick you out too?”I mulled over that for a second.“A little bit of both, I guess,” I said finally. “I couldn’t stay comfortably in that house while Elliot was squatting somewhere.”He tilted his head. “But it isn’t your fault Elliot has a bad relationship with his father. You leaving home isn’t going to magically fix that.”“I know. But it isn’t just because of that. I also think that Mum and I needed space to figure things out. Things aren’t going to change if I stay. She’ll still think of me as her little kid. She doesn’t want to accept that I’m all grown now.”Sebastian’s expression softened. “And your mum? How did she take you leaving the house? Not well I suppose.”I rubbed my face tiredly.For the first time since leaving home, I finally allowed myself to think about what I’d actually done.I moved out. Just like that.No teary goodbyes with Mum huggin

ASHERSebastian opened the door, took one look at me standing there with my bags, and immediately let out a long sigh.I found it quite insulting. He was acting like something unpleasant just showed up at his doorstep.“Why are you acting like that? I already told you I was coming.”“Well, I didn’t think you were serious,” he said, folding his arms. “Besides, that’s exactly the problem. You told me.”I snorted. “What, did you expect me to beg?”He pursed his lips. “Not really. But a little ‘please’ would have sufficed.”“You’d have to wait a long time because I’m not doing that. That’s not the nature of our relationship.”“Oh, I already know how one-sided our relationship is. You don’t need to tell me.”I rolled my eyes. “Your mum made a mistake when she chose James as your middle name. It should’ve been ‘dramatic’ instead.”“Haha, very funny. You didn’t wait for my answer before coming but I’ll tell you now.” He smiled sweetly. “The answer is no.”I raised an eyebrow. “No?”“No,” he

ASHERShe nodded slowly.I nodded too.Then I hesitated. There was still one more thing that had to be done. I didn’t want to ask her for this and I seriously doubted if it would even work but I had to try.“Would you at least talk to Simon? Try and see if he can allow Elliot back into the house?”She shook her head immediately. “I can’t do that. I told you already. I don’t want to interfere in whatever he has going on with his son.”I did not like her answer. A tiny rush of disappointment filled me.“I was hoping it wouldn’t have to come to this but…” I exhaled sharply. “I’m leaving too.”She looked confused. “What? Leaving where?”“Leaving the house.”“You’re leaving because Elliot is no longer around?”“No, I’m leaving because I don’t feel comfortable staying in this house while Elliot is being punished for something we both did. It feels unfair and I don’t like it.”“What? It’s not unfair—”“It is, Mum, and you know it too.”Her lips trembled slightly. “So you’re leaving me? Is th

ASHERThat finally made her stop. “Of course, I’m aware.”“And? Don’t you find something wrong with that? Don’t you think this is a gross exaggeration of things?”“Look,” she began carefully. “I might not agree with Simon’s decision but… it’s not my place to decide how he wants to handle things with his son.”“Not your place? God, are you even listening to yourself? I never thought you’d be this… uncaring.”Her eyes hardened. “Careful how you speak to me, Asher.”“Don’t you think it’s a little unfair that I get to stay in this house while Elliot is gone?”“I told you. It’s not my place to decide these things.”“So you wouldn’t care if I was gone? If the roles were reversed, would you care? Would you appeal to Simon or would you still leave it up to him to decide?”She exhaled sharply, her irritation shining through. “I don’t… God, Asher would you stop? Just stop… stop trying to make me out to be a villain.”My anger faded a little. “I’m not trying to do anything, mum.”“Yes, you are.

ASHER“Are you going to keep avoiding me?” I asked Mum.She was busy pretending like I didn’t exist, moving around the kitchen and focusing on cooking like I wasn’t even there.It wasn’t even like she was giving it her full concentration either. She’d already added salt twice to the soup. But I wasn’t going to tell her that. She’d figure it out soon enough.“Mum,” I said again.She didn’t respond. The sound of the knife as it met the cutting board filled the room as she focused all her attention on chopping vegetables.You’d think there was going to be an exam on it later.“Mum.”She sighed, her exasperation ringing loud and clear. “What do you want, Asher?”“I want us to talk. Or at the very least, I want you to look at me.”She finally glanced up, her expression hard. It was difficult for me to see her look so unforgiving. I was used to her constantly smiling.“I told you I needed space,” she said. “Why can’t you respect that?”“I’ve given you enough space. Now it’s time for us to t

ELLIOTI froze as I realized the words that just came out of my mouth. I just said I was in love with Asher.It was impulsive but as I probed my mind, I realized I meant it.Dad stiffened too. “You can’t possibly mean that. You don’t know what you’re saying.”“I really don’t care if you believe me or not.”He shook his head. “Your mum would be very disappointed in you if she could see you right now. What do you think she’ll have to say about you dating your stepbrother?”I tensed. The blood in my veins turned to ice. “Don’t you dare drag my mother into this. Now you care about her ‘cos it fits your agenda, right?”I ignored the doubt creeping into my mind. The one that told me Dad was right and my mum would be disappointed in me.Instead, I forced myself to remember that day at the cemetery. The one where he told me that Mum would want me to be happy. Because it was the truth. That was who my mother was. Not the person Dad was painting her to be.“You don’t even know her,” I went on.
